Add the cauliflower and potatoes; cook, stirring, until they are coated with the spices. Add the tomato wedges, cilantro and salt; toss to combine. Add the water. Bring to a rolling boil, cover and cook on medium for 15 minutes. Add the peas and cook, uncovered, until peas are heated through and all vegetables are tender. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Semi-Vegetarian Variation: After sauteing the spices, add 1 pound top sirloin or top round that has been sliced thinly across the grain. Stir until the pieces of meat are coated with spices and browned. Then add the cauliflower and potatoes. Stir until they, too, are coated with spices. Then proceed with recipe as instructed above. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
